hi fleck,

what's the 137 days?

(edit: got you...until it's zero


Gold going, going... Gold was down about a buck and a half. At the rate it's been going - down on average a couple of dollars a day - in another 135 days it will be at zero. Obviously that's not going to happen, but it goes to show what extrapolation will do for you.

The most notable area of movement was the bank stock index, down a couple of percent early on. It wound up closing just slightly better than that.

w/ Al supposedly believing (innaccurately) that there is less of a chance now of a serious crash on Wall Street per his recent statements... it sure would be nice if he grew a pair and hiked just to show the speculators who's boss... ho ho ho... but alas I am dreaming again.... we KNOW that won't happen.
